    The pernil is awesome! Latin shrimp is great also! Coming from the city I always appreciate good Hispanic food on the island. AND IT'S A PUERTO RICAN SPOT NOT MEXICAN!

    So many different variations to choose from but chipotle beef is my fav! They deliver and even two three towns away! Get lunch special and save, 2 empanadas and Spanish rice and beans and drink.

    Sorry if I am being a little picky here, but this food is from a Caribbean latin culture and not mexican. Food is awsome and so is the flan. Empanadas de camaron! Off the hook.

    Any kind of Empanada you can think of. They will even make BAKED Empanadas if you give them a call ahead of time.
